Recently declassified documents reveal that Monsanto has provided both the Israeli and US militaries with white phosphorus as early as 2009.
White phosphorus is a chemical weapon, which burns through nearly any surface and creates large clouds of toxic smoke.
Exposure to this chemical can be potentially fatal or debilitating, but sadly it is not recognized legally as a chemical weapon, and thus is perfectly legal for Western governments to use against the inhabitants of poor developing countries.
Documents released in 2012 by the US Federal Business Opportunities, and recently published by the website Current Events Inquiry, shows that Monsanto provided the Israeli military with 180,000 pounds of white phosphorous which was used on Palestinians in Gaza in 2008 and 2009.
“Over the past 20 years, the majority of the manufacturing of WP moved to China and India because of lower costs and the lack of EPA regulations in those countries.
“In the 1990s, there were manufacturers capable of manufacturing WP in the United States; Because of EPA regulations and foreign price competition, closed their operations.
“With only one known producer of WP in the NTIB (Monsanto), the Government’s support of this domestic capability is critically important as it reduces the risk to the war fighter in times of national emergency as well as avoiding a potentially dangerous dependency upon a foreign source.”
The document also stated that:
“The Government is aware of only one source, Monsanto, who currently manufactures WP in the US.”
Monsanto has a very nasty history before they were in the food industry they primarily dealt with chemicals.
Since the beginning of the 20th century, they were responsible for the manufacture of various toxic chemicals, which includes anything from caffeine to Agent Orange, along with other dangerous pesticides and herbicides.
Monsanto even helped develop uranium for the atomic bomb in the Manhattan Project. Their chemical Roundup has been known to cause dozens of different plant diseases and does unknown damage to the ecosystem, just as their other pesticides do.
